Thanks. We used to just keep them awake as long as possible. Their afternoon naps were cut out pretty early. They used to hate us in the creche, all the other kids would be asleep except ours. Then the second hated creche so much he'd just sleep (or cry) all day long.

Excuse the ignorance, what is sleep training?

It's hard but ride it out. When you're dealing with a stroppy 19 yr old you'll look back fondly at these days. That said, every stage has its highs and lows.

Two/three is a great age. Enjoy it.

Shortly after my Inter-Cert my older brothers brought me out to see this rock covers band that used to play every week in Trim. I think that was my first time to be drunk in a pub. Before that we used to raid our parents' drinks cabinets and get drunk while they were out. I think we were doing...

Our 16 yo had his first beer over christmas. He drank it but a few days later we gave him another and he had half and couldn't be arsed finishing it.

Case by case basis. Also, we had a fucking massive bed at the time.

We were against bringing kid 1 into the bed. On kid 2 we relaxed a lot. You never knew who was going to be in what bed in the mornings. It was fine.

Well it comes out today. Our son has had it on pre order for 9 months. He and his mates are getting the bus straight from school to the GamesStop.

Has anyone else's kid turned into a maniac today because of Super Smash Bros?

Young fella has finally started to accept his enormous stature. Problem is he goes around flexing all day.

The magic six weeks mark.

I'm learning Jimmy Eat World songs with my son. 16 years Chris.... edit: that's not a complaint. The songs are great.

They have no patience though.

Just spent the evening rowing with my eldest (25 mins to put on shoes!). But then in the car he asked me where my weezer blue album is and when we got home started learning how to play The Sweater Song on the drums. You'll be grand.

Reminds me of the time out headmaster called every boy from 4th - 6th class into the hall to talk about a Jazz Mag that had been brought into the school. Memories....

My eldest has taken to walking around reciting NWA raps (swear words skillfully replaced). That sounds cool, but he isn't the most socially skilled and will be doing it at the table while people are chatting. My main gripe, they seem to do everything in slow motion but can be online with...

I'm turning off the wifi! Hollow threat when I need it to work.
